Prince Harry to arrive on Monday for military duty

He is flying into Australia a prince, but by the time he reaches Canberra, he will simply be Captain Harry Wales.

Prince Harry is set to arrive on Monday for a month-long exchange program with the Australian Army.

His first duty is to visit the Australian War Memorial to lay a wreath at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

But, once he reports to the Chief of Defence Force, Captain Wales will be just another soldier.

Prince Harry’s schedule is a tightly guarded secret, but we know he will spend time with 6th Aviation Regiment at Sydney's Holsworthy army base.

In Darwin he'll be with NorForce which operates throughout the Northern Territory and Western Australia's Kimberley region.

While in Perth he'll be involved in elements of SAS selection and training with some of our country's toughest soldiers.

Captain Wales will have some free time though, so royal watchers will be on the lookout.
